Sean “Diddy” Combs is officially trying to find his way out of a federal prison sentence after President Donald Trump confirmed on Monday that the music mogul has requested a pardon. I honestly can’t believe how fast this whole process is moving, but if you’re facing over four years in federal prison, you’re going to try everything you can to get that coveted “get out of jail free card.”
Trump, who was speaking directly from the Oval Office, didn’t hold back when confirming the request. According to Fox, Trump admitted, “A lot of people have asked me for pardons.” And in a detail that truly adds a personal touch, “I call him Puff Daddy; he has asked me for a pardon.” That one quote tells you everything you need to know about the high-stakes political game being played here.
